If she has hair, other than >pubic, she should remove it. Holy Cow. I can't believe some of the discussions that get started in this group. But as long as you, ah, mentioned it ... Who SEZ a woman's body should be smooth and clean? Who SEZ a man should let his armpit hair grow down until he can tie it to his shoelaces? We're talking cultural and personal preferences here, folks. Know what's REALLY disgusting when it comes to hair? Those guys who have dense clumps of hair growing from their noses and ears who refuse to trim them ... (yuck, yuck, spit! this is getting disgusting! :-) There are certain males who find that armpit hair on a female is a turn-on. I suspect you find more of them in Europe than in the USA. Is one preference 'better' than the other? Of course not. No cultural preference 'should' be the way it is; it just is. An American female who chooses to cornrow her leg hair and shave her head bald will, I'll wager, find SOME American males who find it a turn-on. And an American male who chooses to dye his hair flourescent green and put a crowbar through his nose will find SOME American females who think he's the bee's knees. Chacun a son gout. There's somebody for everyone, Joe. -- Cheers, Bill Ingogly
